Nimalan Nandapalan, Richard P. Brent, Lawrence M. Murray, Alistair Rendell

摘要:

本文研究了在图形处理器(GPU)上部署伪随机数发生器(PRNG)的问题,提出了一种基于异源发生器快速产生高统计质量伪随机数的方法。所选算法具有可配置的状态大小和周期,使其非常适合调整到GPU架构。我们提出了一个比较的速度和统计质量与其他常见的并行,基于GPU的PRNG,表现出良好的性能的xorgens为基础的方法。

英文摘要:

This work considers the deployment of pseudo-random number generators (PRNGs) on graphics processing units (GPUs), developing an approach based on the xorgens generator to rapidly produce pseudo-random numbers of high statistical quality. The chosen algorithm has configurable state size and period, making it ideal for tuning to the GPU architecture. We present a comparison of both speed and statistical quality with other common parallel, GPU-based PRNGs, demonstrating favourable performance of the xorgens-based approach.
